Recently purchased this and am interested as to the top wood used. Have any indication from Bocote to Wenge ? SN# 96W9644 Any thoughts? |

Looks like Bocate for the top to me. The body wood is typically going to be Mahogany, and that color seems to jive with that. Wenge tends to be a fair bit darker. Love the top on your bass. Epic's aren't normally my favorite body style, but that top wood really works well with the body shape. Enjoy it! |

Hi Judd and welcome to the forum. Congratulations on your recent Epic acquisition. There is an area here on the forum for Serial Number / History Requests where you may start a thread requesting the build information. Best, Art |

I'd go with bocate too as it looks similar to the top on my bocage bass. Jazzyvee |
